| 0:23.0 | Steve Allen's Little Bit Extra. Morning everybody, welcome along to your free podcast for today, |
| 0:28.1 | Tuesday the 16th of June. I trust you are well. Well, I couldn't believe it either yesterday. |
| 0:33.7 | Do you know that people were queuing for Primark overnight? They were, I mean, have Primark got some deal on or something? |

| 1:35.0 | I'm so glad I never went to Kingston yesterday. |
